It was great meeting Representative-elect Don Leonard. The American people voted for authenticity and truth.

Angelenos voted to ensure we do everything we can to block the bombs and end citizens united.

I'm appalled by what took place last night at White Memorial hospital in Boyle Heights, where ICE agents were obstructing emergency room entry and detained two US citizens. I condemn these reckless actions by the Trump administration.

Why are Elon Musk and other billionaires flooding the airwaves with Islamophobic ads against Abdul?

Because they have nothing to say about the issues that matter to working people: healthcare, climate, AI and foreign policy.

WE WILL NOT LET THEM DIVIDE US

[Grant Johnson ABC30 @GrantJohnsonABC]

Fresno City Council candidate Naindeep Singh tells me he expects to be “fully exonerated” after his arrest on suspicion of drug DUI. He says his own drug screen came back negative. Police toxicology results are still pending.

My report tonight for @ABC30

[South Asian Network (SAN) @SANSoCal]

@CityofFresno & @MayorJerryDyer should fire Mindy Casto

[Amar Shergill Californiawala @AmarShergillCA]

Naindeep Singh has been exonerated!!!...and the police chief was forced to apologize. But remember, it was only Naindeep's foresight to get a urine test done on his own immediately that saved him. By clearing his own name, he exposed the election interference by the City and Fresno PD. The resulting massive show of public support, forced them to expedite the blood test and apologize. If Naindeep didn't have his own evidence, they were fully prepared to let this DUI headline hang over his head until the election was over. This is corruption and it's a civil rights violation. The community will lift Naindeep up and he will win this election with a mandate for accountability and transparency like Fresno has never seen before. This has only just begun.

[Amar Shergill Californiawala @AmarShergillCA]

Here's the latest nonsense from the Fresno Police Chief re Naindeep Singh:

1. She goes in front of news cameras today saying Naindeep, despite not having any alcohol or drugs in his system, somehow failed a field sobriety test.

2. She will not release the body-cam video that actually shows what happened in the field sobriety-test.

Here's the thing, nobody trusts Fresno PD and City Hall anymore. They went to media with the DUI arrest smear but are slow-walking the toxicology reports that would exonerate him. Now, they are smearing him with the field sobriety test but refusing to release the video.

This is how a desperate city establishment steals an election from a community leader. No worries, Naindeep will win anyway!

[Amar Shergill Californiawala @AmarShergillCA]

The Fresno Police Department falsely smeared an elected official just a week before the election and, yes, it is it as bad as it sounds:

1. Fresno PD pulled over Naindeep Singh for a pretext registration check and then accused him of driving under the influence of drugs.
2. Naindeep passed a breathalyzer test and volunteered to give blood/urine samples.
3. PD took him to the hospital and got the tests done.
4. Naindeep also had another urine test at the same hospital and the reports are negative for drugs.
5. Fresno PD and City leadership immediately ran to media and got wall-to-wall coverage that Naindeep was arrested for DUI.
6. Fresno PD refuses to release their own test results, saying it will take weeks.

It is a violation of Naindeep's civil rights under the US and CA Constitution, particularly while votes are being cast, for Fresno PD to rush to publish the DUI investigation but not the test results that would exonerate him. City leadership could get those results in hours, just like Naindeep did.

There are two things happening here. First, Naindeep has been running a progressive campaign that holds police and city leadership accountable for their failed policy agenda. Second, there is a widely opposed multi-billion dollar real estate development at risk if Naindeep is elected.

The people of Fresno are rallying behind Naindeep and this will backfire against the City and Fresno PD. They have only made his voice louder and more powerful. Sikhs are in Chardi Kala and more motivated than ever to defeat corruption in Fresno.

Last Friday, I joined @RepRobertGarcia and my California colleagues for an unannounced oversight visit to the Adelanto ICE Processing Center.

What we witnessed was appalling, and consistent with the neglect I have been sounding the alarm about for the past decade: filthy living conditions, dirty water, moldy food, tattered mattresses, and inadequate medical care.

Every day Adelanto remains open is another day lives are in danger. SHUT IT DOWN NOW.
